利用原子干涉术探测地球上暗能量的可能性
The Possible Detection of Dark Energy on Earth Using Atom Interferometry
摘要:
本文介绍了利用原子干涉测量术直接探测地球上暗能量密度是否可能的实验研究的概念和开始。这个概念是使用双干涉仪消除引力。该研究为暗能量的研究提供了一条非天文学的途径。本文还讨论了这种方法在其他假设弱力和弱场中的应用。在最后一节中,我讨论了在地球轨道上的卫星中进行暗能量密度搜索的优点,在那里可以实现更精确的引力归零。
英文摘要:
This paper describes the concept and the beginning of an experimental investigation of whether it is possible to directly detect dark energy density on earth using atom interferometry. The concept is to null out the gravitational force using a double interferometer. This research provides a non-astronomical path for research on dark energy. The application of this method to other hypothetical weak forces and fields is also discussed. In the the final section I discuss the advantages of carrying out a dark energy density search in a satellite in earth orbit where more precise nulling of gravitational forces can be achieved.
